Maigret is a British television series made by the BBC and which – following a pilot episode broadcast in 1959 – ran for 52 episodes from 1960 to 1963. [1]
Based on the Maigret stories of Georges Simenon, the series starred Rupert Davies in the title role.
Unlike most BBC series produced in the 1960s, all episodes (bar the pilot) have survived intact, and are available as a complete set on DVD and Blu-ray.
In 2022 the series was broadcast by UK television channel Talking Pictures TV.
